About the guests:
Victoria Cavanaugh
After volunteering in an orphanage in El Salvador, Victoria later founded the non-profit organization which provides housing, food, books, and tuition to underprivileged youth in El Salvador. In August of 2005, Victoria visited El Salvador as a member of a service-learning program. During her visit, she spent two days a week at an orphanage, where she witnessed extreme poverty and lack of education. During her visit, Victoria became close with one of the orphans, Magdalena Lopez. After finding out that Magdalena could not afford to go to college, Victoria wanted to help. From this desire to help, the organization “Nuestro Ahora” was eventually born.
“Nuestro Ahora” currently supports 18 young men and women, who collectively represent 6 of the same 15 orphanages “Nuestro Ahora” works with throughout Western and central El Salvador.
